The atmosphere in your world of cultivating immortals is not right.

Chapter 33 No.1 Under the Golden Core

A competition between cultivators of immortality will generally not last too long unless both parties are both rough-skinned, thick-skinned, and able to recover quickly.

In the same realm, one flaw or one miss is enough to determine the outcome.

Therefore, when Qing Shaohua fought to such an extent with his first move, the disciples watching felt that the winner of the contest was already decided.

……

As the dazzling fire ball rose, Qing Shaohua also felt that the battle was won, but he continued to arrange the formation.

He is by nature cautious.

Just when Qing Shaohua was about to complete the arrangement of the formation, a gap was blown open in the center of the arena. His vision was blurred for a moment, and a figure was already blocking him.

It was Zhang Zhen. After experiencing such a violent spiritual explosion, he only had dirty clothes and looked a little embarrassed.

Everyone watching was astonished.

How can this be!Is it possible that a sword and body dual cultivator suddenly appeared?
Qing Shaohua's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot when his way forward was blocked. Zhang Zhen did not lose his combat effectiveness or even suffered any injuries. This was an acceptable change.

But such a violent explosion couldn't even hold him back for a moment!And where the opponent is standing... is the final formation that needs to be deployed in this formation.

There is only one explanation,
He had already been seen through.

A talisman of lightness was struck, and Qing Shaohua retreated violently.

Zhang Zhen did not pursue him, he just stood there and watched silently. When Qing Shaohua retreated, he raised his long sword and slowly approached, his eyes unwavering.

"Ok?"

When Qing Shaohua saw Zhang Zhen still standing there expressionless, he was stunned for a moment, and then shouted angrily: "Are you laughing at me!"

His face was also flushed with anger.

The pursuit was so leisurely, which was tantamount to saying that he did not pose any threat to him.Because his cultivation talent and understanding of techniques were far inferior to those of his classmates, he was looked down upon by others since he was a child. He painstakingly studied techniques, formations, and talismans, and spent a lot of effort to get to this point...

At this moment, Zhang Zhen acted as if he was denying everything he had done.

Qing Shaohua hit several formation stones one after another and embedded them into the ground. He temporarily changed the formation on the incomplete formation he had just laid out. He changed the tactics in his hands and the full mobilization of his spiritual power made the air around him slightly distorted.

In less than a breath, the temporary formation had been arranged. Qing Shaohua squatted down and poured all the spiritual power in his body into the formation!
Like stars being lit up, the formation stones on the ground were successfully connected by the spiritual circuit and lit up one after another. The light of the formation pattern shot straight into the sky, and a huge phantom gradually stood up from the formation...

A phantom of a god wearing golden armor and holding a giant ax stood up straight. The terrifying spiritual pressure made everyone in the stands feel a lot of pressure.

Qing Shaohua gasped, stood up, and looked at Zhang Zhen with burning eyes.

He waved his hand, and the god general raised the giant ax in his hand. Suddenly, the wind and clouds surged, and the blade of the giant ax hit Zhang Zhen with the force of breaking a mountain!

Zhang Zhen raised his head and looked at the gradually expanding shadow, still expressionless, and said slowly: "I'm really sorry if I offended you."

Without any obstruction or dodge, the golden ax fell on top of Zhang Zhen's head.

Everyone in the stands also closed their eyes - before the elder took action at this time, I would probably die in the ring.

The entire martial arts stage was quiet for a moment.

"Crack."

There was a sound like breaking jade, and everyone opened their eyes to see that the bloody scene they imagined did not appear.

A crack appeared in the shadow of the giant ax where it came into contact with Zhang Zhen's forehead, spreading upward at an extremely fast speed!

In the blink of an eye, cracks spread all over the giant's body, and then quietly collapsed, turning into golden spiritual fragments that filled the sky...

Only then did Zhang Zhen walk up to Qing Shaohua unhurriedly and put his long knife across his opponent's shoulder.

"Why..." Qing Shaohua murmured, looking at the ground with blank eyes.

"The temporary formation has too many loopholes and is too easy to break." Zhang Zhen said with a normal expression.

Rarely, he opened his mouth to explain the reason for his opponent's defeat.

……

"Well, Zhang Zhen, I didn't even think he had this kind of strength when I went on a mission last time." Qiu Yunqing frowned and talked to Wu You, not even eating the potato chips in his hand.

sense of crisis.

How could anyone hide it better than her? !

"Maybe there is some secret method to hide one's cultivation? You can't tell a person by appearance. Maybe there is a junior brother around us who is also hiding his clumsiness?" Wu You replied, glancing at Qiu Yunqing by the way.

"..." Qiu Yunqing was silenced.

Qin Yu took advantage of every opportunity: [Young Master, look!I'll just say...]

【Shut up.Why didn't you see that Zhang Zhen was hiding his cultivation? 】

[Uh... well... you know, young master, that my soul power is limited and my recovery is slow...] Qin Yu's answer was hesitant. He couldn't directly admit that he was fishing.

[Then don’t talk. 】

【Yes……】

……

The remaining games were surprisingly fast.

The main reason is that Zhang Zhen seems to have completely let go, and his opponents are often defeated in two or three rounds.

With this kind of strength, he could almost compete with the weakest Jin Dan in the early stage (although he could not escape a loss). In less than ten o'clock, he won the title of No. [-] in foundation building.

On the high platform, several elders of Jingtian Sect also started talking.

"An ordinary inner sect can actually reach this point. It is a rare and good seedling."

"Indeed, it is unimaginable to be able to break spells with swords so accurately with this level of cultivation! If you don't have any intention of accepting disciples..."

"Don't come here! It all depends on strength, so you can follow me!"

"Hey I..."

Several elders were talking about getting into a fight over the rush to recruit disciples.

Jiang Bing was drinking tea slowly on the side.

Very cold and uninvolved.

What kind of No.1 under the golden elixir can compare with my apprentice?Be careful, I'll blind you later!
……

It is reported that someone said afterwards:
Seeing how affected everyone is makes me even.

(Unnamed smile)
……

The competition between the Foundation Establishment disciples ended half a day earlier than originally planned, and the most direct impact was... the battle at the Golden Core Realm was about to begin in the afternoon.

After Zhang Zhen chose not to participate in the Jindan Realm competition, the afternoon schedule was quickly arranged.

The flying crane that sent the message fell into the hands of Wu You in the stands. The competition numbers for the Jindan disciples were all delivered by Feihe, not drawn by himself.

Theoretically, there is huge room for black-box operations.

But Wu You is not worried about this. The master is in charge of the competition, and he should be the one to cheat.

The paper crane in his hand stretched out automatically. Qiu Yunqing came over and read out the number on the paper: "37..."

"what?"

The two spoke in unison.

Looking up, ink marks were clearly visible on the huge spiritual scroll in mid-air——

No. 37 has a bye.

No, master, are you serious? !
